Cicero, Caesar, Caesarion, 25th of December & the Lord Jesus Christ Cicero’s plan to drive out Antony failed, however. He was proscribed as an enemy of the state by the Second Triumvirate and was hunted down. Traitor. i think he was helping Gaius Octavius, who later became emperor Augustus (Latin: Imperator Caesar Divi Filius Augustus), following the assassination of his maternal great-uncle Julius Caesar in 44 BC, Caesars will named Octavius as his adopted son and heir, together with Mark Antony and Marcus Lepidus.*1 They have divided the Roman Republic among themselves and ruled as military dictators, eventually torn apart under the competing ambitions of its members: Lepidus was driven into exile and stripped of his position, and Antony committed suicide following his defeat at the Battle of Actium by Augustus in 31 BC. And, as we all know, Cleopatra VII Philopator, of the Ptolemaic dynasty, a family of Macedonian Greek origin that ruled Egypt after Alexander the Greats death during the Hellenistic period,*2 also committed suicide, only shortly survived by her son, Caesarion as pharaoh. Caesarion was also known as the son of Isis, Issa in Egyptian, because his mother presented herself as the reincarnation of an Egyptian (virgin) goddess,Isis, Egyptians thought Cleopatra was a reincarnation of the goddess Isis, as she called herself Nea Isis. Cleopatra also had three children with Mark Antony. On 25 December 40 BC, Cleopatra gave birth to twins fathered by Antony, Alexander Helios and Cleopatra Selene II. Four years later, He renewed his relationship with Cleopatra, and from this point on, Alexandria was his home. He married Cleopatra according to the Egyptian rite (a letter quoted in Suetonius suggests this), although he was at the time married to Octavia Minor, sister of his fellow triumvir Octavian. He and Cleopatra had another child, Ptolemy Philadelphus. At the Donations of Alexandria in late 34 BC, following Antonys conquest of Armenia, Cleopatra and Caesarion were crowned co-rulers of Egypt and Cyprus; Alexander Helios was crowned ruler of Armenia, Media, and Parthia; Cleopatra Selene II was crowned ruler of Cyrenaica and Libya; and Ptolemy Philadelphus was crowned ruler of Phoenicia, Syria, and Cilicia. Cleopatra was also given the title of Queen of Kings by Antonius. Caesarion was not only elevated having coregency with Cleopatra, but also proclaimed with many titles, including god, son of god and king of kings, and was depicted as Horus. However, prior to his mothers sudden and tragic death, he was sent to India, incognito, at the age of thirteen, in the wake of Octavius army arrival, escorted by Cleopatras trusted couple, Mary (Egyptian for beloved) and so-called Joseph of Judea. The rest is history. __________________________________ *1 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustus *2 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopatra https://facebook/ancientoriginsweb/photos/a.595116573862624.1073741825.530869733620642/898242443550034/?type=1&theater
